Cold… warmer… YOU'RE ON FIRE! Getting Warmer is a hot-and-cold puzzle game where a flame is hidden somewhere on the board. Tap a square and it tells you how close you are, from Freezing to Burning Up. Follow the hints to work out where the flame is. Plays offline. No ads, account, notifications, or trackers. Daily Flame One new puzzle every day, the same for everyone. The hints come in a set order and you get seven moves to spend between hints and guesses. Guess the flame the moment the hints narrow it to one square and you've Pinpointed it. Classic Find the flame before you run out of taps. Only one hint stays on the board at a time, so you'll have to remember where you've been. Zen No tap limit. Every hint stays on the board. Choose your board size. Endurance Find as many flames as you can in one run. Each find grows the board, up to 9×9, and earns a few taps back. As in Classic, only one hint stays on the board. The free version includes the Daily Flame, Classic, the 5×5 Zen board, and one trial run of Endurance. A small one-time purchase unlocks the 7x7 and 9x9 Zen boards and unlimited Endurance runs.

About

Pathpiece

Read full description

Pathpiece is an offline spatial logic puzzle game where the path you walk becomes the bridge you need. Imagine the shape, plan your route, and discover how one small change can open the way forward. Draw your route with a swipe, or tap one square at a time. Guide your traveler from the start flag to the finish line. Every square you visit lifts with the others as one rigid piece. Rotate it, position it over the next room, and watch it settle when it fits. Then cross the bridge you made. In later puzzles, that crossing becomes the piece for another room, so a clever route must work more than once. Explore handcrafted grid puzzles with stars to collect, one-way arrows, blocked squares, and islands that change how you plan. Selected later levels introduce mirroring, inviting you to see a familiar shape from a different angle. Each new room asks you to think beyond the next step. Enjoy a relaxing pace with no timer and no ads. Undo a move, revisit an earlier room, or open a hint when you need a fresh idea. Experiment until the pieces click into place and a difficult crossing becomes your next “aha” moment. A hands-on first crossing teaches you through play. A warm paper-atlas world, gentle sound and haptics, and layouts for iPhone and iPad make room for thoughtful play. Your puzzles are ready offline, whenever you have a quiet moment. Play the first 8 levels free. Continuing beyond them requires a one-time Full Journey unlock through an in-app purchase. No subscription.
